Deuterated tryptamine derivatives and methods of use

ABSTRACT

The present disclosure is directed to chemical compounds and to the use of such compounds in the treatment of diseases associated with a serotonin 5-HT 2  receptor.

FIELD

The present disclosure relates generally to chemical compounds and, in some embodiments, to serotonin 5-HT₂ receptor agonists and uses in the treatment of diseases associated with a 5-HT₂ receptor.

BACKGROUND

There are three, closely related subtypes of serotonin 5-HT₂ receptors (5-HT₂Rs), 5-HT_(2A), 5-HT_(2B), and 5-HT_(2C), and they are primary targets of classic serotonergic psychedelics, such as lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), psilocybin, and 2,5-Dimethoxy-4-bromoamphetamine (DOB). They share approximately 60% transmembrane amino acid homology, which poses a challenge to design molecules with selectivity for one subtype over the others. Each subtype is expressed in a unique pattern in mammals (both in peripheral tissues and in the central nervous system), and when stimulated, produces unique biochemical, physiological, and behavioral effects. Activation of 5-HT_(2A)Rs, for example, predominantly mediates psychedelic effects and elicits anti-inflammatory effects, whereas activation of 5-HT_(2C)Rs reduces feeding behavior. Chronic activation of 5-HT_(2B)Rs, however, has been linked to valvular heart disease (VHD), a life-threatening adverse event (AE). Furthermore, there are concerns that patients who could benefit from a 5-HT_(2A)R pharmacotherapy could be resistant to experiencing psychedelic effects

Tryptamines are a class of serotonergic psychedelics, and possess very high potencies at serotonin 5-HT₂Rs (in some cases sub-nanomolar affinities). Certain tryptamines are distinguished from classic psychedelics and other serotonergic psychedelics by possessing selectivity—in some cases 100-fold—for 5-HT_(2A)Rs over 5-HT_(2B)Rs and 5-HT_(2C)Rs.

AEs caused by tryptamines and other serotonergic psychedelics are associated with ingestion of relatively high doses. Likely owing to their very high potency at 5-HT_(2A)Rs and 5-HT_(2C)Rs, the active oral doses of tryptamines are extremely low. For example, 2C—C—NBOMe (2-(4-Chloro-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-N-[(2-methoxyphenyl)methyl]ethan-1-amine) is orally active at doses as low 25 μg, and very strong psychedelic doses are in the range of 500-700 μg. Thus, misuse or abuse, at or exceeding these doses, can cause visual and auditory hallucinations, agitation, aggressiveness, psychosis, and poisoning has been associated with toxicity (e.g., rhabdomyolysis) and fatalities. Furthermore, tryptamines can undergo extensive first-pass metabolism, rendering them orally inactive.

There is a need for serotonin 5-HT_(2A)R agonists that overcome the 5-HT_(2B)R problem and the issue of psychedelic effects, as well as a need to improve their bioavailability and enhance their oral activity. There is a further need for efficient, more convenient, and controllable tryptamine formulations that afford no neurologically toxic (e.g., psychotomimetic toxic) plasma concentration.

SUMMARY

The present disclosure is based at least in part on the identification of compounds that modulate serotonin 5-HT₂ receptors and methods of using the same to treat diseases associated with a serotonin 5-HT₂ receptor. More specifically, the present disclosure provides novel compounds that permit, for example, once-daily dosing to selectively engage 5-HT_(2A)Rs without producing psychedelic effects, and to treat neuropsychiatric and other disorders associated with inflammation.

Without being bound to any particular theory, it is believed that the novel compounds described herein having selective deuteration, like in the exocyclic moiety, allow for significant slowing of enzymatic degradation with improved exposure (i.e., prevention of high drug concentrations (spiking) observed acutely after administration) and increased blood-to-brain ratio, resulting in enhanced oral bioavailability. Some compounds described herein confer similar benefits by selective deuteration of the phenyl ring.

It is understood that in all substituted groups defined above, polymers arrived at by defining substituents with further substituents to themselves (e.g., substituted aryl having a substituted aryl group as a substituent which is itself substituted with a substituted aryl group, which is further substituted by a substituted aryl group, etc.) are not intended for inclusion herein. In such cases, the maximum number of such substitutions is three. For example, serial substitutions of substituted aryl groups specifically contemplated herein are limited to substituted aryl-(substituted aryl)-substituted aryl.

Unless indicated otherwise, the nomenclature of substituents that are not explicitly defined herein are arrived at by naming the terminal portion of the functionality followed by the adjacent functionality toward the point of attachment. For example, the substituent “arylalkyloxycarbonyl” refers to the group (aryl)-(alkyl)-O—C(O)—.

As to any of the groups disclosed herein which contain one or more substituents, it is understood, of course, that such groups do not contain any substitution or substitution patterns which are sterically impractical and/or synthetically non-feasible. In addition, the subject compounds include all stereochemical isomers arising from the substitution of these compounds.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” means a salt which is acceptable for administration to a patient, such as a mammal (salts with counterions having acceptable mammalian safety for a given dosage regime). Such salts can be derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic bases and from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic acids. “Pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to pharmaceutically acceptable salts of a compound, which salts are derived from a variety of organic and inorganic counter ions well known in the art and include, by way of example only, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, ammonium, tetraalkylammonium, and the like; and when the molecule contains a basic functionality, salts of organic or inorganic acids, such as hydrochloride, hydrobromide, formate, tartrate, besylate, mesylate, acetate, maleate, oxalate, and the like.

The term “salt thereof” means a compound formed when a proton of an acid is replaced by a cation, such as a metal cation or an organic cation and the like. Where applicable, the salt is a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, although this is not required for salts of intermediate compounds that are not intended for administration to a patient. By way of example, salts of the present compounds include those wherein the compound is protonated by an inorganic or organic acid to form a cation, with the conjugate base of the inorganic or organic acid as the anionic component of the salt.

“Solvate” refers to a complex formed by combination of solvent molecules with molecules or ions of the solute. The solvent can be an organic compound, an inorganic compound, or a mixture of both. Some examples of solvents include, but are not limited to, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylsulfoxide, and water. When the solvent is water, the solvate formed is a hydrate.

“Stereoisomer” and “stereoisomers” refer to compounds that have same atomic connectivity but different atomic arrangement in space. Stereoisomers include cis-trans isomers, E and Z isomers, enantiomers, and diastereomers.

“Tautomer” refers to alternate forms of a molecule that differ only in electronic bonding of atoms and/or in the position of a proton, such as enol-keto and imine-enamine tautomers, or the tautomeric forms of heteroaryl groups containing a —N═C(H)—NH— ring atom arrangement, such as pyrazoles, imidazoles, benzimidazoles, triazoles, and tetrazoles. A person of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that other tautomeric ring atom arrangements are possible.

It will be appreciated that the term “or a salt or solvate or stereoisomer thereof” is intended to include all permutations of salts, solvates and stereoisomers, such as a solvate of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a stereoisomer of subject compound.

As used herein, the language “maximum sustained release” describes the release window for certain formulations of the present disclosure formulated to increase the release period to a maximum value, which is ultimately limited by the time the gastrointestinal tract naturally excretes all drugs with food.

The language “tamper resistance” is art-recognized to describe aspects of a drug formulation that make it more difficult to use the formulation to abuse the drug moiety of the formulation through extraction for intravenous use, or crushing for freebase use; and therefore reduce the risk for abuse of the drug.

As used herein, the term “steady” describes the stable or steady-state level of a molecule concentration, e.g., concentration of any compound described herein.

As used herein, the term “composition” is equivalent to the term “formulation.” As used herein, the language “administration event” describes the administration of a subject a given dose, in the form of one or more pills within a short window of time, e.g., less than 10 minutes.

As used herein, the language “release period” describes the time window in which any compound described herein is released from the matrix to afford plasma concentrations of compounds described herein. The start time of the release period is defined from the point of oral administration to a subject, which is considered nearly equivalent to entry into the stomach, and initial dissolution by gastric enzymes and acid. The end time of the release period is defined as the point when the entire loaded drug is released. In embodiments, the release period can be greater than about 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 16 hours, or 20 hours, greater than or equal to about 24 hours, 28 hours, 32 hours, 36 hours, or 48 hours, or less than about 48 hours, 36 hours, 4 hours or less, 3 hours or less, 2 hours or less, or 1 hour or less.

The term “treating” or “treatment” as used herein means the treating or treatment of a disease or medical condition in a patient, such as a mammal (particularly a human) that includes: ameliorating the disease or medical condition, such as, eliminating or causing regression of the disease or medical condition in a patient; suppressing the disease or medical condition, for example by, slowing or arresting the development of the disease or medical condition in a patient; or alleviating a symptom of the disease or medical condition in a patient. In an embodiment, prophylactic treatment can result in preventing the disease or medical condition from occurring, in a subject.

“Patient” refers to human and non-human subjects, especially mammalian subjects.

As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, the terms “prevent,” “preventing” and “prevention” refer to the prevention of the onset, recurrence or spread of a disease, disorder, or condition, or of one or more symptoms thereof. The terms encompass the inhibition or reduction of a symptom of the particular disease, disorder, or condition. Subjects with familial history of a disease, disorder, or condition, in particular, are candidates for preventive regimens in certain embodiments. In addition, subjects who have a history of recurring symptoms are also potential candidates for the prevention. In this regard, the term “prevention” may be interchangeably used with the term “prophylactic treatment.”

As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, the terms “manage,” “managing” and “management” refer to preventing or slowing the progression, spread or worsening of a disease, disorder, or condition, or of one or more symptoms thereof. Often, the beneficial effects that a subject derives from a prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent do not result in a cure of the disease, disorder, or condition. In this regard, the term “managing” encompasses treating a subject who had suffered from the particular disease, disorder, or condition in an attempt to prevent or minimize the recurrence of the disease, disorder, or condition.

“Pharmaceutically effective amount” and “therapeutically effective amount” refer to an amount of a compound sufficient to treat a specified disorder or disease or one or more of its symptoms and/or to prevent the occurrence of the disease or disorder.

As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, a “prophylactically effective amount” of an active agent, is an amount sufficient to prevent a disease, disorder, or condition, or prevent its recurrence. The term “prophylactically effective amount” can encompass an amount that improves overall prophylaxis or enhances the prophylactic efficacy of another prophylactic agent.

The language “neurologically toxic spikes” is used herein to describe spikes in concentration of any compound described herein that would produce side-effects of sedation or psychotomimetic effects, e.g., hallucination, dizziness, and nausea; which can not only have immediate repercussions, but also effect treatment compliance. In particular, side effects may become more pronounced at blood concentration levels above about 300 ng/L (e.g. above about 300, 400, 500, 600 or more ng/L).

As used herein, and unless otherwise specified, a “neuropsychiatric disease or disorder” is a behavioral or psychological problem associated with a known neurological condition, and typically defined as a cluster of symptoms that co-exist. Examples of neuropsychiatric disorders include, but are not limited to, schizophrenia, cognitive deficits in schizophrenia, attention deficit disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, bipolar and manic disorders, depression or any combinations thereof.

“Inflammatory conditions” or“inflammatory disease,” as used herein, refers broadly to chronic or acute inflammatory diseases. Inflammatory conditions and inflammatory diseases, include but are not limited to rheumatic diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriatic arthritis) spondyloarthropathies (e.g., ankylosing spondylitis, reactive arthritis, Reiter's syndrome), crystal arthropathies (e.g., gout, pseudogout, calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease), multiple sclerosis, Lyme disease, polymyalgia rheumatica; connective tissue diseases (e.g., systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, Sjogren's syndrome); vasculitides (e.g., polyarteritis nodosa, Wegener's granulomatosis, Churg-Strauss syndrome); inflammatory conditions including consequences of trauma or ischaemia, sarcoidosis; vascular diseases including atherosclerotic vascular disease, atherosclerosis, and vascular occlusive disease (e.g., atherosclerosis, ischaemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, peripheral vascular disease), and vascular stent restenosis; ocular diseases including uveitis, corneal disease, iritis, iridocyclitis, and cataracts.

As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. As used in the description herein and throughout the claims that follow, the meaning of “a”, “an”, and “the” includes plural reference as well as the singular reference unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The term “about” in association with a numerical value means that the value varies up or down by 5%. For example, for a value of about 100, means 95 to 105 (or any value between 95 and 105).

Some compounds described herein confer similar benefits by selective deuteration of the phenyl ring.

Also disclosed herein is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound as disclosed herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle.

“Pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles” may be vehicles approved by a regulatory agency of the Federal or a state government or listed in the U.S. Pharmacopeia or other generally recognized pharmacopeia for use in mammals, such as humans. The term “vehicle” refers to a diluent, adjuvant, excipient, or carrier with which a compound of the present disclosure is formulated for administration to a mammal. Such pharmaceutical vehicles can be liquids, such as water and oils, including those of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, such as peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil and the like. The pharmaceutical vehicles can be saline, gum acacia, gelatin, starch paste, talc, keratin, colloidal silica, urea, and the like. In addition, auxiliary, stabilizing, thickening, lubricating and coloring agents may be used.

When administered to a mammal, the compounds and compositions of the present disclosure and pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles, excipients, or diluents may be sterile. In some instances, an aqueous medium is employed as a vehicle when the subject compound is administered intravenously, such as water, saline solutions, and aqueous dextrose and glycerol solutions.

Pharmaceutical compositions can take the form of capsules, tablets, pills, pellets, lozenges, powders, granules, syrups, elixirs, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, suppositories, or sustained-release formulations thereof, or any other form suitable for administration to a mammal. In some instances, the pharmaceutical compositions are formulated for administration in accordance with routine procedures as a pharmaceutical composition adapted for oral or intravenous administration to humans Examples of suitable pharmaceutical vehicles and methods for formulation thereof are described in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Alfonso R. Gennaro ed., Mack Publishing Co. Easton, Pa., 19th ed., 1995, Chapters 86, 87, 88, 91, and 92, incorporated herein by reference. The choice of excipient will be determined in part by the particular compound, as well as by the particular method used to administer the composition. Accordingly, there is a wide variety of suitable formulations of the subject pharmaceutical compositions.

Administration of the subject compounds may be systemic or local. In certain embodiments administration to a mammal will result in systemic release of a compound of the present disclosure (for example, into the bloodstream). Methods of administration may include enteral routes, such as oral, buccal, sublingual, and rectal; topical administration, such as transdermal and intradermal; administration by inhalation via, for example a nebulizer or inhaler, and parenteral administration.

In some embodiments, the compositions include a compound as disclosed herein at a purity of at least 50% by weight of the total amount of isotopologues of formula present. In some embodiments, any position in the compound having deuterium has a minimum deuterium incorporation of at least 45% at the deuterium. In some embodiments, the composition is substantially free of other isotopologues of the compound.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition includes: (i) a water-insoluble neutrally charged non-ionic matrix; and (ii) a polymer carrying one or more negatively charged groups.

In some embodiments, the non-ionic matrix is selected from cellulose-based polymers such as HPMC, alone or enhanced by mixing with components such as starches; waxes; neutral gums; polymethacrylates; PVA; PVA/PVP blends; or mixtures thereof. In some embodiments, the cellulose-based polymer is hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC).

In some embodiments, the polymer carrying one or more negatively charged groups is polyacrylic acid, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, polymethacrylate carboxylates, cation-exchange resins, clays, zeolites, hyaluronic acid, anionic gums, salts thereof, or mixtures thereof.

In some embodiments, the anionic gum is a naturally occurring material or a semi-synthetic material. In some embodiments, the naturally occurring material is alginic acid, pectin, xanthan gum, carrageenan, locust bean gum, gum arabic, gum karaya, guar gum, gum tragacanth, or mixtures thereof. In some embodiments, the semi-synthetic material is carboxymethyl-chitin, cellulose gum, or mixtures thereof.

In some embodiments, provided is a modified release oral formulation. In some embodiments, the oral formulation is for low dose maintenance therapy that can be constructed using either deuterated or non-deuterated tryptamines, capitalizing on the ability of tryptamines to bind with anionic polymers.

The pharmaceutical composition may be prepared and administered in a wide variety of dosage formulations. Compounds described may be administered orally, rectally, via inhalation, or by injection (e.g., intravenously, intramuscularly, intracutaneously, subcutaneously, intraduodenally, or intraperitoneally).

For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from compounds described herein, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible granules. A solid carrier may be one or more substance that may also act as diluents, flavoring agents, binders, preservatives, tablet disintegrating agents, or an encapsulating material.

In powders, the carrier may be a finely divided solid in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active component may be mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired.

The powders and tablets can contain from about 5% to about 70% of the active compound. Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. The term “preparation” is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component with or without other carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets and lozenges are included. Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration.

For preparing suppositories, a low melting wax, such as a mixture of fatty acid glycerides or cocoa butter, is first melted and the active component is dispersed homogeneously therein, as by stirring. The molten homogeneous mixture is then poured into convenient sized molds, allowed to cool, and thereby to solidify.

Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions, for example, water or water/propylene glycol solutions. For parenteral injection, liquid preparations can be formulated in solution in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution.

Aqueous solutions suitable for oral use can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavors, stabilizers, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspensions suitable for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water with viscous material, such as natural or synthetic gums, resins, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and other well-known suspending agents.

Also included are solid form preparations that are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations for oral administration. Such liquid forms include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. These preparations may contain, in addition to the active component, colorants, flavors, stabilizers, buffers, artificial and natural sweeteners, dispersants, thickeners, solubilizing agents, and the like.

A pharmaceutical preparation can be in unit dosage form. In such form the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of preparation, such as packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. Also, the unit dosage form can be a capsule, tablet, cachet, or lozenge itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form.

The quantity of active component in a unit dose preparation may be varied or adjusted from about 0.001 mg to about 10 mg (e.g., about 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0. 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 mg or more; or any range between about 0.001 and about 10.0 mg (e.g., between about 0.0001 and about 0.1, between about 0.1 and 1.0, between about 0.0005 and 0.5, or between about 0.01 and about 2.0 mg), according to the particular application and the potency of the active component. The composition can, if desired, also contain other compatible therapeutic agents.

Some compounds may have limited solubility in water and therefore may require a surfactant or other appropriate co-solvent in the composition. Such co-solvents include: Polysorbate 20, 60, and 80; Pluronic F-68, F-84, and P-103; cyclodextrin; and polyoxyl 35 castor oil. Such co-solvents are typically employed at a level between about 0.01% and about 2% by weight. Viscosity greater than that of simple aqueous solutions may be desirable to decrease variability in dispensing the formulations, to decrease physical separation of components of a suspension or emulsion of formulation, and/or otherwise to improve the formulation. Such viscosity building agents include, for example, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, methyl cellulose, hydroxy propyl methylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxy propyl cellulose, chondroitin sulfate and salts thereof, hyaluronic acid and salts thereof, and combinations of the foregoing. Such agents are typically employed at a level between about 0.01% and about 2% by weight.

The pharmaceutical compositions may additionally include components to provide sustained release and/or comfort. Such components include high molecular weight, anionic mucomimetic polymers, gelling polysaccharides, and finely-divided drug carrier substrates. These components are discussed in greater detail in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,911,920; 5,403,841; 5,212,162; and 4,861,760. The entire contents of these patents are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes.

The pharmaceutical composition may be intended for intravenous use. The pharmaceutically acceptable excipient can include buffers to adjust the pH to a desirable range for intravenous use. Many buffers including salts of inorganic acids such as phosphate, borate, and sulfate are known.

The pharmaceutical composition may include compositions wherein the active ingredient is contained in a therapeutically effective amount, i.e., in an amount effective to achieve its intended purpose. The actual amount effective for a particular application will depend, inter alia, on the condition being treated.

The dosage and frequency (single or multiple doses) of compounds administered can vary depending upon a variety of factors, including route of administration; size, age, sex, health, body weight, body mass index, and diet of the recipient; nature and extent of symptoms of the disease being treated; presence of other diseases or other health-related problems; kind of concurrent treatment; and complications from any disease or treatment regimen. Other therapeutic regimens or agents can be used in conjunction with the methods and compounds disclosed herein.

Therapeutically effective amounts for use in humans may be determined from animal models. For example, a dose for humans can be formulated to achieve a concentration that has been found to be effective in animals. The dosage in humans can be adjusted by monitoring response of the constipation or dry eye to the treatment and adjusting the dosage upwards or downwards, as described above.

Dosages may be varied depending upon the requirements of the subject and the compound being employed. The dose administered to a subject, in the context of the pharmaceutical compositions presented herein, should be sufficient to effect a beneficial therapeutic response in the subject over time. The size of the dose also will be determined by the existence, nature, and extent of any adverse side effects. Generally, treatment is initiated with smaller dosages, which are less than the optimum dose of the compound. Thereafter, the dosage is increased by small increments until the optimum effect under circumstances is reached.

Dosage amounts and intervals can be adjusted individually to provide levels of the administered compounds effective for the particular clinical indication being treated. This will provide a therapeutic regimen that is commensurate with the severity of the individual's disease state.

Utilizing the teachings provided herein, an effective prophylactic or therapeutic treatment regimen can be planned that does not cause substantial toxicity and yet is entirely effective to treat the clinical symptoms demonstrated by the particular patient. This planning should involve the careful choice of active compound by considering factors such as compound potency, relative bioavailability, patient body weight, presence and severity of adverse side effects, preferred mode of administration, and the toxicity profile of the selected agent.

(b) a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient;

whereby, upon oral administration of the modified-release pharmaceutical composition to the subject, a steady release of said drug from the modified-release pharmaceutical composition is maintained so that no neurologically toxic spike in the subject's plasma occurs during the release period of said drug from said pharmaceutical composition.

General Tablet Formulations

The formulations of the disclosure comprise orally administered pharmaceutical compositions, such as tablet, capsule, caplets, gelcap and cap compositions, which may include uncoated tablets or coated tablets, caplets and caps (including film-coated, sugar-coated tablets, and gastro-resistant/enteric-coated tablets). The oral pharmaceutical compositions for oral use may include the active ingredients, e.g., a tryptamine derivative, such as DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, psilocybin, and psilocin, or any of the compounds described herein, mixed with pharmaceutically acceptable inactive excipients such as diluents, disintegrating agents, binding agents, lubricating agents, powder flow improving agent, wetting agents, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preservatives. Moreover, oral pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure are solid dosage forms intended for oral administration, e.g., obtained by dry granulation with single or multiple compressions of powders or granules. In some embodiments, the oral pharmaceutical compositions may be obtained by using wet granulation techniques. In some embodiments, the oral pharmaceutical compositions may be obtained by molding, heating/annealing, or extrusion techniques.

In some embodiments, the oral tablets are right circular solid cylinders, the end surfaces of which are flat or convex, and the edges of which may be beveled. In some embodiments, the surfaces are convex. In addition, they may have lines or break-marks (scoring), symbols or other markings

In some embodiments, the break-mark(s) is/are intended to permit accurate subdivision of the tablet in order to provide doses of less than one tablet. In some embodiments of the disclosure, the tablet compositions comprise one or more excipients such as diluents, binders, disintegrating agents, glidants, lubricants, substances capable of modifying the behavior of the dosage forms and the active ingredient(s) in the gastrointestinal tract, coloring matter authorized by the appropriate national or regional authority and flavoring substances. When such excipients are used it is necessary to ensure that they do not adversely affect the stability, dissolution rate, bioavailability, safety or efficacy of the active ingredient(s); there must be no incompatibility between any of the components of the dosage form.

Coated tablets are tablets covered with one or more layers of mixtures of substances such as natural or synthetic resins, polymers, gums, fillers, sugars, plasticizers, polyols, waxes, coloring matters authorized by the appropriate national or regional authority, and flavoring substances. Such coating materials do not contain any active ingredient, e.g., a tryptamine derivative, such as DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, psilocybin, and psilocin, or any of the compounds described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The tablets may be coated for a variety of reasons such as protection of the active ingredients from burst release from the matrix, air, moisture or light, masking of unpleasant tastes and odors or improvement of appearance. The substance used for coating may be applied as a solution or suspension.

In some embodiments, the manufacturing processes for the oral pharmaceutical compositions, e.g., tablets, meet the requirements of good manufacturing practices (GMP). In some embodiments, one or more measures are taken in the manufacture of oral pharmaceutical compositions selected from the following: ensure that mixing with excipients is carried out in a manner that ensures homogeneity; ensure that the oral pharmaceutical compositions possess a suitable mechanical strength to avoid crumbling or breaking on subsequent processing, e.g., coating, storage and distribution; minimize the degradation of the active ingredient; minimize the risk of microbial contamination; minimize the risk of cross-contamination. In addition, in the manufacture of scored tablets (tablets bearing a break-mark or marks) for which subdivision is intended in order to provide doses of less than one tablet measures are taken to: ensure the effectiveness of break-marks with respect to the uniformity of mass or content, as appropriate, of the subdivided parts so that the patient receives the intended close.

In general a suitable dose will be in the range of about 0.01 to about 10 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient per day, e.g., in the range of about 0.1 to about 5 mg per kilogram body weight per day. Additional details on techniques for formulation and administration are well described in the scientific and patent literature, see, e.g., the latest edition of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Maack Publishing Co, Easton Pa. (“Remington's”). After a pharmaceutical composition has been formulated in an acceptable carrier, it can be placed in an appropriate container and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition). For administration of the formulations comprising any of the compounds described herein (e.g., a tryptamine derivative, such as DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, psilocybin, and psilocin, or any of the compounds described herein), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, such labeling would include, e.g., instructions concerning the amount, frequency, method of administration, treatment regimen and indications.

EXAMPLES Example 1. Synthesis of PI-α,α-d₂

Synthesis of PI-α,α-d₂ started with 4-oxybenzylindole that is iminoformylated by formaldehyde/dimethylamine and then converted to the 3-acetic acid derivative using potassium cyanide in acidic conditions. Subsequent treatment with thionyl chloride and dimethylamine produces a related amide that is reduced by LiAlD₄, which inserts a deuteromethylene group in the α-position. In the final step, the —OBz protective group is removed by hydrogen gas over a palladium catalyst to produce a final compound. The structure of the product has been confirmed by ¹H NMR and LC-MS.

Example 2. Synthesis of DMT-d₁₀

Synthesis of DMT-d₁₀ started with indole that is first acylated by oxalyl chloride and then converted to the related amide by treatment with dimethyl amine-d₆. Subsequent reduction with LiAlD₄ leads to the final product. The structure of the material has been confirmed by ¹H NMR and LC-MS.

Example 3. Synthesis of 5-CD₃O-DMP-α,α,5,5,5-d₅

Synthesis of 5-CD₃O-DMP-α,α,5,5,5-d₅ has been conducted analogously to DMT-α,α-d₂ described in the Example 2 starting from 5-deuteromethoxy indole prepared by the methylation of 5-hydroxyindole using deuteromethyl iodide. The structure of the product has been confirmed by ¹H NMR and LC-MS.

Example 4. Synthesis of Aer-α,α,-d₂

Synthesis of Aer-α,α-d₂ has been conducted using an —OBz bis-deuterated tryptamine intermediate obtained as described in the Example 1. That material has been alkylated with methylamine and then reduced by hydrogen on palladium to obtain a final product as an iodide salt (Scheme 2). The structure of the product has been confirmed by ¹H NMR and LC-MS.

Example 5. 5-HT Receptor Pharmacodynamics

Binding affinity (K_(i)) and functional potency (EC₅₀) values of PI and PI-α-d₂ are summarized in Table 1. Deuteration was found to have little effect on the affinity and function at key receptor targets.

Receptor Affinity Assays: 5-HT_(1A), 5-HT₂(A,B,C) receptor affinities were determined by radioligand competition binding. Membranes from CHO-K1 or HEK293 cells expressing serotonergic receptors were collected and incubated in assay buffer with K_(d) concentrations of radioligands and tests compounds that compete for receptor binding sites. After equilibration, the reaction was terminated by collecting ligand-receptor-membrane complexes (Microbeta, PerkinElmer), and radioactivity was measured by a scintillation counter (Microbeta2, PerkinElmer). Data were fit to non-linear curves, and K_(i) values were calculated per the Cheng-Prusoff equation.

Receptor Function Assays: 5-HT_(1A) receptor-mediated Gi stimulation (reduction in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels) and 5-HT_(2(A,B,C)) receptor-mediated Gq stimulation (phosphoinositide hydrolysis leading to the production of inositol phosphate 1 (IP1))—canonical signaling pathways—were measured as previously described (Canal et al., 2013), for example, with a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) capable microplate reader (e.g., Mithras LB 940, Berthold) using commercially-available kits employing Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) technology (e.g., LANCE Ultra cAMP TR-1-RET (PerkinElmer) and IP-One HTRF (Cisbio) kits). Briefly, CHO-K1 or HEK293 cells expressing serotonergic receptors were incubated with test compounds in stimulation buffer. After equilibration, the reaction was terminated with the donor and acceptor fluorescent conjugates in lysis buffer, and FRET was measured. Data were fit to non-linear curves to calculate potencies (e.g., EC₅₀) and efficacies (e.g., E_(MAX)), relative to positive controls (e.g., serotonin).

Example 6. In Vitro Liver Metabolism and Kinetic Deuterium Isotope Effects

5-MeO-DMT and 5-MeO-DMT-α,α-d₂ (10 μl of 2 μM solution) were incubated in 200 μl of medium that consisted of 100 mg rat liver microsomes, NADPH regenerating system (1 mM NADP, 1 unit/ml of isocitrate dehydrogenase, 5 mM isocitric acid, 5 mM magnesium chloride), and 25 mM of phosphate buffer (pH 7.4). The reaction was terminated at different time points (0 to 60 min) by the addition of 300 μl of acetonitrile. For the analyses of products, the precipitated salts and proteins were spun out on a centrifuge, the residual solution diluted with 300 μl of water and injected into the LC/MS (Agilent 1200 system interfaced with an ABS Sciex 4000 QTRAP LC/MS/MS Mass Spectrometer). The metabolic stability was estimated by evaluating the rate of disappearance of the main parent peak. The observed collective kinetic deuterium isotope effect (the reaction rate decrease for deuterated vs. non-deuterated molecule) was substantial at 150-200%. Similar effects were observed in this assay for DMT vs. DMT-α,α-d₂ and DMT-α,α,β,β-d₄. Further enhancement of metabolic stability has been detected for DMT-d₁₀ that also showed a superiority in the MAO-A enzymatic assay highlighting additional deuteration effects of the —N(CD₃)₂ substituent.

Example 7. PK Studies in Rats and Mice

The key PK parameters (presented as a % change vs. non-deuterated materials) are presented in Table 3 to include half-life (T₁/2), area under the curve (AUC), bioavailability (F) and blood-to-plasma ration (BPR). Pharmacokinetics of the deuterated tryptamines was studied in rats. In a typical experiment, run as a cassette dosing, two groups of 5 Wistar female rats (200-250 g) with surgically inserted jugular vein catheter (Charles River, Andover, Mass.) were fasted for 12 h and then administered 5 mg/kg of the deuterated and 5 mg/kg of the related non-deuterated analog, by oral gavage or via a catheter for each group. At time points 0, 15, 30, 60 min, and 2, 4, 8, and 24 h, the resulting plasma was analyzed for the parent molecule using LC/MS spectroscopy. Two separate groups of 5 animals were used for determining blood-to-plasma ratio (BPR). Each group was sacrificed at time points 15 and 30 min, respectively, and the concentration of the parent drug was determined in the brain and plasma by LC/MS spectroscopy.

Example 8. In Vitro Enzymatic Assays

The metabolic consequences of selective deuteration of tryptamine-based compounds were ascertained in two in vitro assays, i.e., monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and rat liver microsomes (RLM). Rat liver microsomal assays are considered a good proxy of the in vivo liver metabolism controlling the metabolic fate of tryptamines. Similar outcomes of deuteration have been detected in the in vitro assay of different animal species including human liver microsomes.

Without being bound to any particular theory, it is hypothesized that the major metabolic degradation pathway involving tryptamines, especially the exocyclic side chain of tryptamines, is controlled by the MAO-A enzymes. Consequently, for certain molecules, it is believed that specific deuteration in the exocyclic moiety of tryptamines (like the N—CH₂ fragment) can make a significant impact on the overall metabolic kinetics, i.e., the significant slowing of enzymatic degradation of the tryptamine derivatives discussed herein. In these instances, increased metabolic stabilities in both MAO-A and RLM assays were observed relative to the base nondeuterated compounds. In absence of MAO-A metabolism, deuteration of the N—CH₂ group had no impact on the RLM digest kinetics. No metabolism of tryptamines by MAO-B enzyme was observed.

Test results are summarized in Table 7 that established a set of exemplary compounds suitable for selective deuteration of the N—CH₂ fragment and also provided additional information regarding selective deuteration in other parts of the molecules. Comparison between the compounds was made using a best-fit curve to calculate half-life, i.e., a time point where 50% of the compound is digested in the assay.

hrMAO-A (Lot #8213001) and the hrMAO control (Lot #1067001) were purchased from XenoTech. The reaction mixture was prepared as described below. The co-dosed TAs were added into the reaction mixture at a final concentration of 1 microM each. The positive control, kynuramine (25 microM), was run simultaneously with the TAs in a separate reaction. The reaction mixture (without TAs or kynuramine) was equilibrated in a shaking water bath at 37° C. for 5 minutes. The reaction was initiated by the addition of the TAs or kynuramine, and the mixture was incubated in a shaking water bath at 37° C. Aliquots (100 microL) of the TA reaction mixture were withdrawn at 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, and 120 minutes. Aliquots (100 microL) of the positive control reaction mixture were withdrawn at 0 and 30 minutes. TA and kynuramine samples were immediately combined with 100 microL of ice-cold 100% MeCN containing 0.1% formic acid and IS to terminate the reaction. The samples were then mixed and centrifuged to precipitate proteins. All TA samples were assayed by LC-HRAMS. The PARR (analyte to IS) at each time point was compared to the PARR at time 0 to determine the percent remaining at each time point. Reaction composition: hrMAO 0.02 mg/mL; Potassium Phosphate, pH 7.4 100 mM; Magnesium Chloride 5 mM; Test Articles (each) 1 microM.

Substrates were incubated in 200 μl of medium that consisted of 100 mg rat liver microsomes, NADPH regenerating system (1 mM NADP, 1 unit/ml of isocitrate dehydrogenase, 5 mM isocitric acid, 5 mM magnesium chloride), and 25 mM of phosphate buffer (pH 7.4). The reaction was terminated at different time points (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, and 120 minutes) by the addition of 300 μl of acetonitrile. For the analyses of products, the precipitated salts and proteins were spun out on a centrifuge, the residual solution diluted with 300 μl of water and injected into the LC/MS (Agilent 1200 system interfaced with an ABS Sciex 4000 QTRAP LC/MS/MS Mass Spectrometer). The metabolic stability was estimated by evaluating the rate of disappearance of the main parent peak.

As can be seen in Table 7, there is MAO-A metabolic activity for tryptamine-based substrates having N-Me and N-Et substituents, as well as the asymmetrically substituted like the N,N-Me,Et substituents, whereas no MAO-A metabolic activity was observed for a tryptamine-based substrate having a N,N-Et moiety. Consequently, tryptamine-based substrates with N,N-Et and higher alkyl chains, e.g., i-Pr and allyl, deuteration in the —N—CH₂—CH₂ and N—R₈,R₉ fragments had no metabolic consequences observed in both MAO-A and RLM assays. Tetra-deuteration of the ethylene bridge or selective bis-deuteration at the alpha carbon stabilized the substrates against MAO-A action compared to the metabolic activity for their base nondeuterated substrates, i.e., slowed down enzymatic degradation. Deuteration at the N—R₈,R₉ fragment further stabilized the substrates against MAO-A action as seen in Table 7. Per-deuterated DMT-d₁₅, with additional deuteration in the phenyl ring provided no improvement in half-life compared to DMT-d₁₀ selectively deuterated at the exocyclic moiety observed in the RLM assay. However, it is observed that phenyl ring deuteration plays a role in slowing down RLM metabolism of the tryptamines that have no MAO-A metabolism. Without being bound to any particular theory, it is believed that there is a contribution to metabolism of tryptamine-based substrates from enzymes other than MAO like CYP isoforms to generate ring-hydroxylated metabolites. Involvement of the CYP enzymes is also believed to be involved in slowed RLM metabolism of the —OMe deuterated vs. non-deuterated 5-OMe substituted tryptamines.
